Introduce compatible "qcom,scmi-smc" for SCMI smc/hvc transport channel for
Qualcomm virtual platforms.

This compatible mandates populating an additional parameter 'capability-id'
from the last 8 bytes of the shmem channel.

While I am happy with the simplification here, I am also bit nervous how
long before Qualcomm abandons this. I hope this is adopted as is in all
internal and downstream code without any modifications and this is not
just a push for upstreaming some change to minimise delta with internal/
downstream code.

Qualcomm is using patch on all the virtual auto platforms using shmem/doorbell as scmi channel. This is already being used without any modifications in our downstream code. No delta for this patch series. Thanks!
